If you are local to Rothbury and nearby villages and have an item for repair simply complete this form which will go to info@coquet-repair.co.uk. 

​

Please be patient, we will reply as soon as we can but it may take a week or so. Please note that you can book only one item into the Repair Café. If you bring a second or third item, they will be looked at if repairers have time, but you will have to go to the back of the queue if there is one.

​

You may want to send a photograph of the item you want repaired directly to the email address above.

​​

What you can bring

Clothes needing patching, or other mends, knitwear needing darning, frayed fabrics, broken toys, pet's toys, small electricals, broken basketry and furniture. We can sharpen garden tools and teach you to do it.

 

Volunteers will be on hand to repair items you bring and teach new skills, especially if we know you are coming. While you are watching, enjoy a chat with tea or coffee and homemade cake.

​

If you’re unsure, just ask but generally speaking, if it can’t be carried in, we can’t fix it! Which means we can’t fix large items such washing machines, fridges, cars, or large TVs.

Our volunteer repairers will assess your enquiry and may get in touch to ask some additional questions or to let you know if you need to bring any spare parts with you on the day. They will also be able to give you an appointment time.

​

By filling in this form you give Coquetdale Repair Café permission to share your email address with volunteers to enable them to contact you about the item to be repaired. 

​

And when you bring your item to be fixed we would like you to stay with the repairer while they are working on it so that hopefully you’ll learn some new skills.  They may even ask you to join in but if you work with the repairer and pick up new skills you do so at your own risk.

​

Repairs are free of charge and carried out by unpaid volunteers so we welcome donations towards Repair Café costs.
